I agree about the second part of your post. The Republicans can certainly campaign on “we are not as bad as Obama and the Democrats” if they wish, but is that going to be enough?
“Meet the new boss, the same as the old boss” as Roger sang for The Who. The time has come for another real revolution, but I doubt that the Republicans are capable. I am cynical about very little in life except for politics, where my cynicism has no limits. The more powerful government becomes, the greater the spoils for the brats and criminals attracted to the golden cesspool.
In fact that reminds me of another reference to a piece of British pop culture – The Magic Christian
The scene shows people willing to jump into filth to extract “free” money – too close to reality for our politicians, although they only muck about in moral filth.
